Not a good look. I wonder did he go because this was going to come to light?

Marty’s being thrown under the bus here.
No... he just has to take the bus :)
Must be hard for him when he's more accustomed to the gravy train.
I don't think you can just borrow a car in return for doing a gig these days. There has to be an invoice, receipts, a contract, VAT charged, etc
This has the look and feel of an under the counter transaction which often ends up with an under-delaration of VAT penalty from revenue.
There's more to this than meets the eye. Revenue could open a whole department to look at RTE. Lets see where this goes.
No he needs a Leap card
He received payment, in the form of a free car. Revenue don't look fondly on sneaky arrangements, like this.
When I was contracting you better be sure that I would have to declare something this significant. He did work, he received compensation with a definite monetary value
Must agree, surely Marty is not the only contractor or employee travelling around in a mode of transport provided by some friend, sponsor, benefactor ect. were renault the only company providing cars I wonder?
Yep- interest and penalties likely to follow IF he hasn’t declared this on past returns-
Yes it looks that way re BIk. He's not an employee of Renault so doesn't seem like BIK applies. Maybe VAT for providing a service, some sort of gift tax, and also extra income?
He is an employee of Renault, he is doing events and is getting paid with a car.
He is also an employee of RTE
Typical, wanted Tubridys head.
And we’ll get feckin Marty morrisseys.
Two heads are better than one
A Morrissey Minor 🤣.
A head in the hand is better than two in the bush.....
Oh dear that came out wrong.....so wrong!
Sorry I was just following the crowd.
It's basically an under the table arrangement, no different to a cash in hand deal
Of all the heads to get....you wouldn't mount that one on the wall to look at every day
Well we’ve had
The Night Joe Dolans Car Broke Down.
Now we can have
The Day Marty Morrissey Returned His Undeclared Car To The Garage.
Absolute nonsense
Is that you Ryan?
What house/e mail address did the reminders to tax and nct Marty’s car go to?
Ryan and Marty in a threesome 😩
Joe hardly got a lift in the car..
A 30k+ cash in hand deal
Ryan has been reading the bible at a prayer group, things are bad!
Indeed
I see people saying there's no problem for RTE with Marty taking the car, how it's no problem of RTEs if Renault want to give Marty a car.
When I do anti bribery courses at work I learn I can't take any gifts that could be seen as bribery. A free car is definitely not something equatable to a lunch discussing work.
RTE News Arts and Media Corr playing it down. Saying that's probably the end of the matter and he'll be doing some commentary on Sunday.
And why was it mentioned at the Oireachtas Committee hearing?
These crooks will be back on TV at the weekend, yet they jail pensioners for not paying the TV licence.
pensioners for not paying the TV licence.
Time this corrupt company was closed down permanently and all the leeches jailed.
It’s not a central issue and most likely it will be Marty that’s in luke warm water with revenue if he hasn’t declared it- which there’s every possibility he has, just not made it public, who knows.
